Assuming I survive the next couple of months, a bed and breakfast gift certificate would be a great Christmas present for me. I’m stressed. Between school, the holidays and other stupid stuff, I’m feeling a bit frazzled. This whole being an adult thing isn’t easy, and I’m beginning to understand why my mom was often so grouchy when I was growing up.
On a brighter note, I’m very excited because Hanson added an Indiana tour date. However, I don’t know if I’ll get to go. I think I could probably afford it, but I don’t have anyone to go with. I usually go with Nikki, and since she’s moving to California, I’d say the possibility of her going are zilch. I’m not sure if I’m brave enough to even bother to ask my sister. I doubt she’d agree to go. It’s really not any fun at all when none of your friends that live nearby like your favorite band. I suppose I could always beg my sister or resort to pleading with my mom. Although, it might be better to just go alone since the likelihood of them complaining the whole time is pretty high.

This weekend is different. For the last couple of months, starting with the weekend before my birthday, we’ve had a birthday party every other weekend for someone in the family. This is an off week, but I think we’re in the clear for now. Allyson’s birthday is up next. Then after that we have a ton of birthdays in December. I’m kind of sad. My brother will be fourteen, which means he’ll be too old for kids party invitations and things like that. He’d probably rather have money and be left alone since he’s a picker eater and probably wouldn’t be too impressed by whatever anyone made him.
It’s so weird, growing older. It feels like time passes by so quickly. I feel extremely old saying I remember the day when my brother was born. I was only ten years old. Here I am fourteen years later wishing he was still just a little kid. The same goes with Allyson. I can’t believe she’ll be nineteen. What’s more is a can’t believe that Tori is three already. Time flies. Way too fast, in my opinion.

Blah. This is all I have to say about this week because that’s pretty much how I’ve felt the whole time. I feel tired and distracted, and I haven’t been able to focus on much of anything. I don’t know what’s wrong with me. I guess I’m just tired.
Honestly, I’m a little worried about doing NaNoWriMo this year. I’m just not amped up for it like I was before. I guess because I have so much stuff that’s going on. I have a lot of assignments for my classes that I need to buckle down and work on. I’m planning to try to work my way through as much of that as I can this weekend. We’ll see how that goes.
While thinking about NaNo, I’ve been thinking that maybe the next time I write a new story, I should try a new location. Maybe a desert. I could look into Arizona real estate and come up with something new. Although I must admit that as of late, I haven’t felt much like doing any writing. I’m in a funk, and I really need to get out of it by next Thursday.

It’s been a long day. I went to class at 1:30, but I only stayed until around 3:15. We had to present our posters to two women from the Rescue Mission. They were both really nice and seemed to respond really well to everyone’s posters, so I have no idea who’s they might choose.
One of the guys in my class was talking about how he won a trip to the Bahamas. I must admit, I’m jealous. It reminded me of all of the Orlando vacations my dad used to promise me that never happened. I guess it will be something I’ll have to do on my own one of these days.
Anyway, I came home after my first classes for about two hours. I ate some dinner and watched a couple of episodes of Queer As Folk. I’m pretty sure I’m certifiably obsessed with the show. Then tonight in class we talked about coloring pictures as well as some more stuff to do with restorations. I have a feeling that I’m going to be quite busy on Friday in lab.

So today I was looking at my livejournal, and someone had the cover of the the New Kids on the Block CDs, and it brought back so many memories from my childhood. One of my first boyfriends gave me an NKOTB cassette as a gift once. Granted, I was in the third grade, so it couldn’t have met too terribly much, but even so, it just made me remember that. Next to the New Kids On the Block doll my mom bought me, the other thing I truly vied for was Garth Brooks tickets. My parents had all of the CDs. Oh, those were the days.
